S1E2| I Am My First Project| When God Feels Distant

What do you do when God feels far away — when faith becomes heavy instead of healing? In this powerful and transparent episode, Nesha Danay, resilience coach and host of I Am My First Project, opens up about her personal journey through religious trauma, manipulation, and emotional abuse within “cult-like” church environments starting at the age of ten.

✨ Nesha explores the difference between religion that controls and faith that frees, sharing how she learned to rebuild a genuine, unconditional relationship with God — one rooted in love, not performance. This episode is an invitation to release guilt, deconstruct harmful teachings, and rediscover the divine connection that never truly left.

💬 In this episode, you’ll uncover:

What it feels like when God seems silent or distant

How religious trauma and manipulation distort our view of faith

The path to healing from spiritual abuse and reclaiming your agency

How to reconnect with God on your own terms
